Thaksin's wife Potjaman Shinawatra, her step brother Bannapot Damapong and her secretary Karnchanapa Honghern, will each be liable to up to seven years in jail and 200,000 baht (about 5,600 U.S. dollars) in fines if they were found guilty in court.
The Attorney General ordered the Assets Scrutiny Committee (ASC) to bring in the three persons to the Criminal Court within 10 days, the Bangkok Post said on its website.
The charge was filed in February by the ASC, who found that the three allegedly arranged to set up the 738-million-baht (about 21 million U.S. dollars) share transfer in the Stock Exchange of Thailand in 1997 so they could evade taxes.
In another deal in 2001, Potjaman and Bannapot colluded with the aide to inform tax agencies that the 4.5 million shares were a gift to her brother and therefore entitled to tax exemption. But the ASC ruled late last year that the deal was taxable.
Blog master ... In fact, This issue happened before Thaksin became to be PM of Thailand in 2002. It was brought back for destroy Dr.Thaksin only. Under policy that Strike First to be advantage. The dictatorship have to propaganda Thais that Thaksin and his family are really bad. The Junta and his gang think this only way could be destroy him.
